    Notes: Nonlocal effects are observed in a number of transient transport studies in tokamaks and stellarators. In this paper some consequences of nonlocality are discussed on the basis of a heuristic model for the electron heat diffusivity (χe). The main consequence is the presence of an additional ("missing'') heating power term (p˜χ) in the heat transport equation. Suitable combinations of p˜χ and modulated power profiles should give rise to detectable effects in modulated heating experiments such as those planned on the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) [R. Andreani et al., in Fusion Technology, Proceedings of the 16th Symposium, London, 1990, edited by B. E. Keen, M. Huguet, and R. Hemsworth (Elsevier Science, Amsterdam, 1991), Vol. 1, p. 218]. Failure to properly include p˜χ effects (if present) can lead to an overestimate of χe from heat wave propagation analysis. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract. Bone marrow stroma produces positive and negative growth regulators which constitute the hematopoietic microenvironment. As many tumors metastasize to the bones, these regulators may also influence tumor growth. Hematopoietic cytokines may indeed exert both positive and negative effect on tumor growth. We report that, when mixed with tumor cells, adherent bone marrow cells inhibit primary tumor growth and metastases formation in mice transplanted with Lewis lung carcinoma or B16 melanoma. Peritoneal macrophages or lymph node cells did not exert any influence. The tumor inhibition was apparently due to soluble factor(s) released by marrow stromal cells. In cocultures with B16 melanoma cells, adherent bone marrow cells exerted a significant antiproliferative effect which was increased by previous culture of the bone marrow cells with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor but not with macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Neither neutralizing antibodies against tumor necrosis factor-α, transforming growth factor-β or interferon α/β nor addition of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide to generate inflammatory cytokines could affect the antiproliferative effect of bone marrow stromal cells. The bone marrow stroma factor(s) which inhibit tumor growth might, therefore, be a novel growth regulator.

    Notes: Abstract Iron(III)-substituted vanadyl phosphate, [Fe(H2O)]0.20VO0.80PO4·2.25H2O (FeVOP), has been prepared and characterized by XRD and TG/DTA analyses. The new compound is isomorphous with layered tetragonal VOPO4·2H2O (VOP), but it possesses a lower interlayer distance. Information on the reactivity and surface acidity of both VOP and FeVOP has been obtained by NH3-TPD experiments. The hydrated materials adsorb high amounts of NH3 (up to 2 mmol g-1). Different ammonia-containing phases are formed, characterized by lower interlayer distances in comparison with the NH3-free parent compounds. NH3 is intercalated between the layers without displacement of water. The materials dehydrated by heat treatment at 450°C retain the layered structure but adsorb NH3 only on the external surface. A wide variety of acid sites, from weak to strong, was observed. A mechanism is proposed for the NH3- acid sites interaction. SEM micrographs of VOP and FeVOP are shown.

    Notes: Abstract A first tentative comparison between the structural framework related to the active tectonics and the long-term seismicity of the Umbria–Marche Apennines (affected by the 1997 seismic sequence) has provided some insight for discussing the seismotectonic characteristics of the area. This Apennine sector is affected by 15 to 20-km-long active fault systems, consisting of minor fault-segments. Each of these fault-segments may be responsible for earthquakes characterised by magnitudes ranging between 5.5 and 6.0 (such as those occurred in 1599, 1730, 1838, 1859, 1979). However, the occurrence of one large-magnitude event (1703, Ms = 6.7) and of seismic sequences (1747–1751; 1997–1998) indicate that an entire fault system may be activated suddenly (at least in the southern part of the investigated area) or during seismic crises which may last many months. The comparison between the active faulting framework and the long-term seismicity also indicates that no significant earthquakes may be related to the Mt. Vettore Fault System since 1000 AD.

    Notes: Abstract A set of new materials with general formula [M(H2O)]X(VO)1−XPO4·2H2O (M 3+=Al, Cr, Ga, Mn), isomorphous with layered tetragonal VOPO4·2H2O and having potential catalytic properties, have been characterized by TG and DTA, X-ray diffraction and surface acid strength. During heating the compounds transform in the monohydrated and anhydrous phases, all maintaining a layered structure, with a proper interlayer spacing. Catalytic tests performed with 1-butene show that theM 3+-vanadyl phosphates greatly improve the conversion of the olefine with respect to pure vanadyl phosphate.
